For the past years I've been heavily immersed in the healthcare, automotive, and general IT verticals, providing innovative technology solutions and leading technology teams. I'm incredibly passionate about what I do and attempt to inject my enthusiasm and love for technology in all those around me. I started my career in and spent four years building enterprise-level, database-driven Web applications. I worked for two different companies during this timeframe and much of my work involved parsing large text files to generate online dynamic courseware. I also worked on several high profile projects in the e-Learning space with one spanning the efforts of the Chinese Ministry of Education and the United States Department of Education. In I began working as a senior developer for a small company building dynamic Web sites in the automotive industry. I spent five years at Dealerskins helping grow the company from Web sites to , Web sites in . When I left I was managing a staff of ten people including programmers, quality assurance analysts, and database administrators. I left Dealerskins in to help form an automotive startup company focusing on big data solutions. I've been serving Dataium as Chief Technology Officer since. My role at Dataium involves managing our technology staff which includes systems, developersprogrammers, and database administrators. I've been fortunate to lead our technology vision and to help build our entire technology stack from a blank sheet of paper. It's been an amazing challenge from day one. Some of our accomplishments include engineering an Apache Hadoop-based platform which processes hundreds of gigabytes every day into a data warehouse well into the terabyte size. We've also created a Web Services system using Linux, Node.js, and MySQL which processes over billion transactions each month.
